Taking the new NC7 test on the 16th. Anyone taken it so far? I have had some friend fail it....Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Do the EC free course study guides help or should I pay the $60 and take the EC practice exams?

Jun 9, 2008 The practice exams were very helpful for me! It seemed like soooo much the exam was the "Framework of Nursing Practice" stuff -- which shouldn't have been a surprise, because I think it's 40% of the exam! I could be wrong about that -- it's been a while since I've taken it.
NC Girl BSN 1,845 Posts Specializes in Psych, LTC, Acute Care. Jun 9, 2008 I took the test under the new curriculum and failed it with a "D" back in April.I retook it about a month ago and got a "C". My friend just took this test and got a "D" on it.Please do not under estimate the difficulty of this test! Buy the EC practice test and follow the outline. I bought the College Network module and a few of the recommended text. You need to study for this test because they are expecting your to make at least 70% in all categories. I made in the 70's and 80's and still got a "C".
